Are the notorious reshaim punished in Gehinnom forever?

I read somewhere in the Internet (Sorry, I forget where it is...) that Gehinnom is a temporary place. Is it true? If it is true, how about the notorious reshaim (ex: Hitler Y"SH)? Are they punished in Gehinnom forever?

Who are those in the 7th level of Gehinnom?

I have heard about the 7 levels of gehinnom, if I am not wrong from a book call Reshit Chochma by Rabbi Eliyahu DaVidas. I don't have the book and didn't find it online. Is there any English translation of it?
